What your garden needs in March
Plan with Purpose
Lets plan your gardens ahead of time, thinking of specific plants to get, maybe a new bed established? Lets plan together now so we can start gathering, prepping, measuring, and planning!
Prune Before New Growth
Before plants start producing their buds is the best time to prune. March is the last of those months, so it’s last call for major pruning until the winter!
Garden Cleanup
Late March, after the last frost, can be a good time to clean up any fallen stems and plant remnants, to make way for new growth in the spring months to come.
